my brother in law has a motorhome with a 400 tranny in it, he was going to spend $2500 for a gear splitter for that tranny so he'd end up with over drive, my thought was to drop the 400 and put a 700 in with factory OD. this will bolt to the 454 that powers the big beast and if I'm correct the only differance will be the length, he may have to have his ds shortened. right?
also, does anyone have any idea how the linkage will differ? how the gear selector on the steering column can be changed to show od?
I'm thinking it should be a pretty straight forward swap with a better first gear and of course OD for limited money, for certain cheaper than the splitter he was looking at.
